While we show so much care for our children, is it right to ignore the rest of the family ? My husband has been asking for a cake for a while. To be honest, I didn’t feel like baking that refined sugar and flour filled mixture. I feel like I’m poisoning the poor guy. There is also the stress of keeping it hidden from Bade. Those cakes would make her blood sugar jump up! And require additional insulin. Even if I manage to bake it without Bade realizing, I have to keep it hidden in the fridge. I really cannot deal with all that stress. So I found the solution : baking real cake with real food. The inspiration I needed was from one of my followers, Ms. Cevher Meltem and her fabulous cake. This cake’s most important quality is that it’s a no-bake cake. Which is an advantage, because as there is no contact with the heat, there is no loss of vitamins.
